WarehouseOS Inventory Management Apps Help Companies with Common Challenges

Salt Lake City, UT -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/01/2018 -- WarehouseOS is a low cost of entry inventory management app that helps companies address these common challenges, according to Tim Hoj, CEO of Hoj Innovations, the parent company to Warehouse Mobile Solutions. Founded by experienced material handling professionals, Warehouse Mobile Solutions has been changing the landscape of distribution centers and warehouses by implementing innovative processes through visualization on a tablet. Deployed as a native app through the Apple App store, WarehouseOS has an extremely simple interface that allows faster and more accurate picks. In many cases, this cloud-based tablet-based fulfillment has cut the amount of time and cost it takes to fulfill daily orders in half through its patented visual processes.

The warehouse model was different when pallets of products were being shipped to retailers. Warehouses with fork trucks were operating in a B2B (business to business) modality. Raw materials came into a manufacturing plant, product was made, and then shipped out for distribution to the brick and mortar stores.

E-commerce changed that entire paradigm. Some call this the Amazonification of retail, where a small number of SKUs are shipping in a bubble pack to the end-user, consumer. This B2C (Business to Consumer) model is quite different than B2B. Pallets are gone in many cases and it is a matter of effectively planning an internal fulfillment center. It is critical to know where the inventory is located, in what quantity, when to reorder, how to pick and pack quickly with accuracy. Product must arrive promptly at the customer's doorstep, and there must be a plan to manage returns.

A team of experts in material handling equipment and solutions developed WarehouseOS to maximize the throughput of warehousing and distribution facilities. Bottom-line: a tablet solution enables manufacturers and distribution centers to be a step ahead of the competition.
